I do like Viogniers, so thanks for the recommendation. I have none for you, but will keep my eyes and lips out for good ones now that I know you are looking.

The Yalumba is a very good choice. Two other excellent value Viognier are the J. & F. Lurton Dom Salices Viognier from France and the Cono Sur Viognier from Chile.

Both are delicious "everyday" viognier choices.

Enjoy!

I love the Viognier/Chenin Blanc blend from Pine Ridge -- it's about $12 and seems to sell out every year.
Plus, the screw cap is awesome.

I really like it and had my snocks knocked off recently with the Failla Viognier. You have to order from the Napa winery, but it is just a fantastic wine.

Hi, We have a local winery that sells a very good Viognier. Let me get the name for you and maybe you can check to see if it is in your area.

You should also check out Rousanne as a varietal... if you're a fan of viognier. It's a little harder to find, maybe a bit more structured, but quite enjoyable and affordable! Ask at your local wine store, they'll be impressed :^)

Hello,

I too love viogniers and have found some fantastic ones. My absolute favorite is made by Darioush in Napa. Also, Carina Cellars from the central coast and Failla (if you can get your hands on it)!
